Overall a very good course for those who have not done any courses on programming language. But if you have done at least one, I am afraid that this may add little to your knowledge.

He is an exceptional teacher and teaches stuff very efficiently.

I had a lot of fun with the facts and the extra material on py4e was helpful too.

Thank you Dr, Severance and Coursera.

Well organised and comprehensive coverage. The slides and explications are kept as simple as possible, but yet do not spare out important details - a balance that is hard to achieve.

Loved it. I have already had some experience with Python, but this course provided a lot of clarity for me, as well as additional information I never learned in my programming class.

I really like the passion that the instructor has for coding. He made me laugh with the small jokes he cracked in between explaining the coding. Great course. Thanks for making this!

Professor Chuck is the man. Makes you very comfortable, has a good quirky sense of humor and keeps you from getting overwhelmed looking forward to taking the next 4 courses with him

highly recommend this course. Great instructor. Functions and parameters never made sense until now. I am three weeks ahead in course 1 and about to start course 2. Highly addictive.

This course is perfectly designed for beginners. This course lifts you from bottom i.e. no prior information is required about python. I can't thank much the professor. Just perfect.

First Python class I've taken where I wasn't extremely bored! The professor is great, engaging, and I feel like I am learning a lot instead of writing "hello world" every 15 seconds.

Excellent experience !! It was worth it. As an improvement, I would recommend that the theory is also taken up in some videos to showcase the importance of self learning to students.
